Digital camera reviews of SanDisk SDCFB-1024-A10 1GB CF Type 1 Card (Retail Package)
Digital camera Review: Best Value on Market; But You Must Know What You're Buying
Summary: 4 Stars
The fact of the matter is, at the time of writing this review, there is no better value than this 1 GB disk. It is not as fast as many that you can purchase, but even for me taking wedding photos, my on-camera cache is enough to compensate for that speed. For the average or even semi-professional photographer (unless your goal is to be taking many rapid-fire shots) even this slow speed should be more than enough.
SanDisk quality and their 5 year manufacturer's warranty make this card that much better of a value over the no-name cheap competition.
The card is not perfect. It may fail and you will be stuck with 1 Gig of corrupted imgaes. That could happen with any card that you purchase. The card is slower than some, but most of the cameras being sold today have at least a 4 picture cache which means you will rarely even notice the effects under normal shooting conditions. The card is not the cure-all for the digital storage world, but at the time of writing this review it was only about fifty-nine bucks making it the best value out there that I have seen, all this with no-cost shipping and no sales tax.
So take the plusses and the minusses into account and make your choice...unless you have very special needs that would necessitate a faster card, this will probably be what you should choose.

Digital camera Review: Boss BR-600 users, don't buy this
Summary: 1 Stars
I Purchased two of these. VERY VERY disapointed when my BR-600 indicated the memory card is not compatable. I thought I was getting a steal when I ordered these, but now, I was the one robbed. I won't even ship them back or ask for my money back, because shipping alone will make this a "NOT WORTH IT" situation. So I'm out [...]. And back to looking for a compatable Memory for my BR-600Digital camera Review: Card holds a lot of pictures
Summary: 4 Stars
Used the card on a cruise and took about 300 pictures at 4 megapixels. No problem with space. The only negative is that the pictures are not numbered in the order they were taken. This made it difficult to organize the photos to make available for friends to see them on line. The previous smaller capacity card in the same camera always numbered and presented the raw photos in cronological order.Digital camera Review: Compatible with Boss BR-600
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this memory card for my Boss BR-600 digital recorder. It worked right away; no initialization was necessary. BR600 Digital Multitrack RecorderDigital camera Review: Do not buy this

Instead look into CF1GB-40-278 (Lexar 40x) compact flash card. This one is Type 1 and slow as molasses. For about the same price the lexar card (which is Type 2) is almost 10 times faster. If you are into digital photography with atleast 3mp cameras you need to skip this card and get a faster one.
